Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2013.0334
Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2013-0334)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'lighttpd' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0334 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'lighttpd' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2013-0334 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated lighttpd packages fix security vulnerabilities:

lighttpd before 1.4.34, when SNI is enabled, configures weak SSL ciphers, which
makes it easier for remote attackers to hijack sessions by inserting packets
into the client-server data stream or obtain sensitive information by sniffing
the network (CVE-2013-4508).

In lighttpd before 1.4.34, if setuid() fails for any reason, for instance if an
environment limits the number of processes a user can have and the target uid
already is at the limit, lighttpd will run as root. A user who can run CGI
scripts could clone() often, in this case a lighttpd restart would end up with
lighttpd running as root, and the CGI scripts would run as root too
(CVE-2013-4559).

In lighttpd before 1.4.34, if 'fam' is enabled and there are directories
reachable from configured doc roots and aliases on which FAMMonitorDirectory
fails, a remote client could trigger a DoS (CVE-2013-4560).

Affected Software/OS:
'lighttpd' package(s) on Mageia 2, Mageia 3.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
